description Systems and methods for structures that support bifacial photovoltaic panels are presented. A system comprising a support structure mounted to an underside of bifacial photovoltaic panels arranged in a row is provided herein. The support structure comprises one or more elongated structural members extending along and in a direction parallel to the row. The support structure further comprises one or more pivot arms that rotate about an axle at a top of the support structure. The one or more pivot arms are positioned in a perpendicular direction to the one or more elongated structural members. The one or more pivot arms connected to the one or more elongated structural members. The one or more structural elements of the support structure have a reflective outer surface to increase reflected light to the underside of the bifacial photovoltaic panels.
